This is the most boneheaded post I've ever read on a Paintsville football thread. Jason is not even in the ball park when it comes to coaching ability compared to burr lemaster. Burrs staff could blow that weak staff they have now out of the water. As for finding a replacement if they go that route, that shouldn't be a problem considering their are assistant coaches all over eastern ky that would love to have a chance to be a head coach. Coaches that have paid there dues and have worked for years to be a head coach and weren't handed a job after one season of coaching as well.

I agree, I think the Tigers biggest mistake was "running" Burr off. I guess winning 8 or 9 games a year, hosting playoff games, and being competetive wasn't enough. I'm with you on finding a replacement. I think that someone who wants a chance to become a head coach would LOVE that position. Chirico would be a great hire, when I played, we all loved him. His passion and intensity was second to none...however, I just don't see that happening. That bridge was probably, and note I say probably because I cannot speak for Joe, burned when his best friend Jim Tom was let go after two season of 6 win football when he took over a team that was left with nothing. Those wins were attributed to coaching and scheme week in and week out. I wish Paintsville the best in whatever they choose to do at the end of the season, but I do know a once storied program rich in tradition and history doesn't deserve to be at the bottom of the state in Class A.

Back to the game...
